My little one as the years go by There may be times when your heart will cry And if your in need of a word of cheer You can always turn to me My little one though I love you so There'll come a day I must let you go But you'll have my love for eternity Little one you are everything to me My darling I love you so much So much there's nothing in the world nothing that I wouldn't do for you And it gives me such a wonderful feeling to know your mine Fills me with more happiness than I've ever known before And each night as you slip off to dream land I thank heaven for giving me you Spoken verse ends My little one though I love you so There'll come a day I must let you go But you'll have my love for eternity Little one you are everything to me
